Breaking Down Music from Today and Yesterday

Forever Now – Ne-Yo: Song of the Day 12/5

A romantic from the start, Ne-Yo has had his ups and downs in relationships. These have been well documented in his songwriting and his VH1 Behind The Music episode. For his latest single off R.E.D., it seems Ne-Yo received the short end of the stick once again.

Over a danceable, uptempo beat, Ne-Yo juxtaposes the production with his sad story on “Forever Now”. The R&B crooner seems to have lost his woman to another man and now all the plans he has made for the future have been shattered. Do not be fooled by the pop vibe of this track. “Forever Now” still is full of lyrical substance which the pop landscape has been lacking.
